Homelite 1050 super fuel line

[Rob Stafari]

Anybody know what the ID of the fuel line for a homelite 1050 super should be? What's the best stuff to use? Are filters readily available that fit? The barb in the tank is a bit larger than any of the random fuel line I have laying around. Also does anybody happen to have a fuel tank cover screw on some junk carcass that would fit or know where I might find such a screw? I seem to have had one evaporate into thin air. Thanks y'all.

I can look at mine in a little bit and let you know what the fuel line is. I also might have the other parts you are looking for. Be a few til I can make it outside.

I can't exactly remember the size but I use some Tygon stuff in the tank and
Honda motors fuel line from tank to carb. I'm thinking the Tygon was a touch
smaller the .125, 1/8 inch.
As for the tank screws, There are two types. One looks more like machine
thread and the other is more like a fine sheet metal screw. Not sure why
Homelite did that. I may have a screw if you can post a pic of one of yours.

Hey Uncle Lee. It is that little screw there. I would say more of the sheet metal screw style. Thanks for the help.

Nothing to be sorry for. I am beyond grateful and in no sort of hurry. Could have waited as long as you needed till it was convenient. Thank you very much.
